Abstract
We perform a new, detailed calculation of the flux and energy spectrum of Earth-emerging τ-leptons generated from the interactions of tau neutrinos and antineutrinos in the Earth. A layered model of the Earth is used to describe the variable density profile of the Earth. Different assumptions regarding the neutrino charged- and neutral-current cross sections as well as the τ-lepton energy loss models are used to quantify their contributions to the systematic uncertainty. A baseline simulation is then used to generate the optical Cherenkov signal from upward-moving extensive air showers generated by the τ-lepton decay in the atmosphere, applicable to a range of space-based instruments. We use this simulation to determine the neutrino sensitivity for E ν ≳ 10 PeV for a space-based experiment with performance similar to that for the Probe of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA) mission currently under study.

Abstract
Today, many experiments around the world (Auger Observatory, Telescope Array, and soon Jem-Euso experiment...) are tracking ultra-high energy cosmic rays. They try to collect some exceptional data that would lift the veil on this type of cosmic rays , mainly to answer why does their energies exceed the GZK cutoff without pointing to astrophysical sources close to our galaxy. Furthermore, we do not really know neither the identity nor the acceleration processes that can provide them with such colossal energy. We have performed, using the CONEX program version 2r6.40 coupled to different hadronic interaction models (QGSJET01, EPOS LHC , SIBYLL 2.1 and QGSJETII-04) simulations focused on the slant depth Xmax of the maximum of the shower longitudinal profile and the charged particle number Nmax. Theses parameters and their fluctuations are very sensitive to the primary particle mass (identity) and energy. The obtained results are compared for proton and iron primaries at the energy range 1018-1021 eV.

Abstract
The IceCube neutrino discovery was punctuated by three showers with E_{ν}≈1-2 PeV. Interest is intense in possible fluxes at higher energies, though a deficit of E_{ν}≈6 PeV Glashow resonance events implies a spectrum that is soft and/or cutoff below ∼few PeV. However, IceCube recently reported a through-going track depositing 2.6±0.3 PeV. A muon depositing so much energy can imply E_{ν_{μ}}≳10 PeV. Alternatively, we find a tau can deposit this much energy, requiring E_{ν_{τ}}∼10× higher. We show that extending soft spectral fits from TeV-PeV data is unlikely to yield such an event, while an ∼E_{ν}^{-2} flux predicts excessive Glashow events. These instead hint at a new flux, with the hierarchy of ν_{μ} and ν_{τ} energies implying astrophysical neutrinos at E_{ν}∼100 PeV if a tau. We address implications for ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray and neutrino origins.

Abstract
Recent results from the Pierre Auger Observatory, showing energy-dependent chemical composition of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with a growing fraction of heavy elements at high energies, suggest a possible non-negligible contribution of the Galactic sources. We show that, in the case of UHECRs produced by gamma-ray bursts or rare types of supernova explosions that took place in the Milky Way in the past, the change in UHECR composition can result from the difference in diffusion times for different species. The anisotropy in the direction of the Galactic center is expected to be a few per cent on average, but the locations of the most recent or closest bursts can be associated with observed clusters of UHECRs.

Abstract
We discuss as a new signature for the interaction of extragalactic ultrahigh energy protons with cosmic microwave background radiation a spectral feature located at E= 6.3 x 10(19) eV in the form of a narrow and shallow dip. It is produced by the interference of e+e(-)-pair and pion production. We show that this dip and, in particular, its position are almost model-independent. Its observation by future ultrahigh energy cosmic ray detectors may give the conclusive confirmation that an observed steepening of the spectrum is caused by the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin effect.

Abstract
Ultrahigh energy cosmic rays create black holes in scenarios with extra dimensions and TeV-scale gravity. In particular, cosmic neutrinos will produce black holes deep in the atmosphere, initiating quasihorizontal showers far above the standard model rate. At the Auger Observatory, hundreds of black hole events may be observed, providing evidence for extra dimensions and the first opportunity for experimental study of microscopic black holes. If no black holes are found, the fundamental Planck scale must be above 2 TeV for any number of extra dimensions.

Abstract
Some of the proposed explanations for the origin of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays invoke new sources of energetic photons (e.g., topological defects, relic particles, etc.). At high redshift, when the cosmic microwave background has a higher temperature but the radio background is low, the ultrahigh-energy photons can generate neutrinos through pair production of muons and pions. The resulting diffuse background of 10(17) eV neutrinos can be detected by future experiments.

Abstract
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are presumed to be powered by the still unknown central engines with timescales in the range from 1 ms to approximately a few seconds. We propose that the GRB central engines would be a viable site for strong meson synchrotron emission if they were compact astrophysical objects, such as neutron stars or rotating black holes with extremely strong magnetic fields (H approximately 1012-1017 G), and if protons or heavy nuclei were accelerated to ultrarelativistic energies on the order of approximately 1012-1022 eV. We show that the charged scalar mesons like pi+/- and heavy vector mesons like rho, which have several decay modes onto pi+/-, could be emitted, with a high intensity that is a thousand times larger than photons, through strong couplings to ultrarelativistic nucleons. These meson synchrotron emission processes eventually produce a burst of very high energy cosmic neutrinos with 1012 eV</=Enu. These neutrinos are to be detected during the early-time duration of short GRBs.

Abstract
With the advent of the new extragalactic deuterium observations, Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) is on the verge of undergoing a transformation. In the past, the emphasis has been on demonstrating the concordance of the BBN model with the abundances of the light isotopes extrapolated back to their primordial values by using stellar and galactic evolution theories. As a direct measure of primordial deuterium is converged upon, the nature of the field will shift to using the much more precise primordial D/H to constrain the more flexible stellar and galactic evolution models (although the question of potential systematic error in 4He abundance determinations remains open). The remarkable success of the theory to date in establishing the concordance has led to the very robust conclusion of BBN regarding the baryon density. This robustness remains even through major model variations such as an assumed first-order quark-hadron phase transition. The BBN constraints on the cosmological baryon density are reviewed and demonstrate that the bulk of the baryons are dark and also that the bulk of the matter in the universe is nonbaryonic. Comparison of baryonic density arguments from Lyman-alpha clouds, x-ray gas in clusters, and the microwave anisotropy are made.
